Detailed explanation-1: -Another procedure is called “extinction". Extinction occurs when a previously reinforced behavior is no longer reinforced with either positive or negative reinforcement. During extinction the behavior becomes less probable.
Detailed explanation-2: -Extinction is the decrease in strength of a learned behavior when the conditioned stimulus is presented without the unconditioned stimulus (in Pavlovian learning), or when the behavior is no longer reinforced (in operant or instrumental learning).
Detailed explanation-3: -What is the meaning of Process of Extinction? The term “extinction” is used in psychology to describe the gradual loss of learned behavior linked to a specific stimulus in the past. In other words, the strength of an attachment pattern decreases, and the desired action dies out.
